So I decided to check out Mandrake 8.0

I went though the install saying I was installing a network management 
workstation tool set, but it did not install nslookup.  I asked it to 
install the yp/NIS stuff for some pen testing and it left it off.  I try to 
install the YP stuff and what do I get

hehehe....  so yp-tools us needed by ypbind and ypbind is needed by 
yp-tools and never shall the 2 meet.  *sigh*

not looking for help, just point out how much fun I am having.
